Got a sweet Harnell 804 today. It has been well-used (as it should be) but it's still in great shape. The guides, handle grips, and reel seat are all really nice. I had a Penn 706 needing a home so now I have a killer surf combo!

Tight Lines,

Wow, talk about a classic combination.  That's beautiful.  PUM and the whole nine yards.  They both hold their value well so I'm sure it wasn't cheap.

That's a beauty, those poodle grips are super clean,hard to find them like that.

The previous owner of that 804 must have kept it in a silk rod sock.  I've bought new rods with more scratches from dealers.
